spintronics

Spintronics, short for spin electronics, is a field of study that deals with the manipulation and exploitation of spin, an intrinsic property of electrons, to encode, process, and store information. Unlike traditional electronics that primarily rely on the charge of electrons, spintronics utilizes not only the charge but also the spin state of electrons, providing potential advances in electronic technology for faster, more efficient, and compact devices.
